charging each other with all sorts of
d0IngS. The final outburSt was caused
by the lady forming a liaiSOn with
young Stanley, and reports of a most
Scanda lOuS nature were circulated. Her
husbands S ears were filled with them by
tale bearers until their conduct became
publicly notorious. One of the numer-
Gus tales is that nude pictures were
taken of the lady by well-known pho
tOgrapher, and that young Stanley was
present. or had been the means. The
man was forced to give them up by
means of a search warrant and a revOl-
yer held by the husband, but not until
some had been exhibited. Public Senti-
ment is very bitter against the
artist. After Stanley made his confess
sion the wife was Immediately packed
off. Many have sympathiZed with Mrs.
Phillips, knowing that she was victim
of the morphine habit and also INDUCED
in liquor. But her conduct became too
notorious, and pubic sympathy was
obliged to give way. Another cause for
sympathy was that her husband has
continually used the columns OF his
paper to expose many of her fOllieS,
which would otherwise not have been
known. She has always been sur
rounded with the good things of this
life, and not thrown into the way of
temptation. Mr.. Phillips has begun a
divorce suit. The summons has been
served, and twenty days are given to
Mrs. Phillips to make an answer.

LONDON, Dee. 17.-1t is reported to-
night that the Kilrain party, including
the American fighter himself, went to
the continent last night following the
Smith party. who are said to have gone
on Thursday. The utmost secrecy is
maintained with respect to the fight, or
the meeting place. Harding, Fleming,
and the other hackers, seconds, etc,
have either taken their departure from
London or are in hiding. A large num-
Der of newspaper men who were as
signed by their respective journals to
do" the fight. suddenly find them
selves '.left," and word is given out
that they are barred. There is
possibility that one or two American
correspondents may be present at the
mill. but the Sporting Life, the organ of
Kilrain, has secured a monopoly of the
story for English circulation, and every
one of the other English papers has
been shut out. The betting still rules
about two to one on Smith, and the
American contingent, who are quite de-
termined to see fair play for Kilrain at
be had at these odds.
ALL READY.
NEW YORK. Dec. IA special cable
dispatch from London to the Evening
Sun states that the arrangements for
the Smith -Kilrain fight have been COM
pleted, and unless circumstances re-
Quire a change of time they will fight

TWELVE FIERCE ROUNDS.
n Savage Mill Between DOwner
and Black Frank.
Special to the Globe.

Special 10 the GLOBE.
ASHLAND, Wis, Dec. 17.-At a
private mill in barn about seven miles
from Ashland Black Frank, of Ashland,
and DOwner, champion middleweight of
Wisconsin, fought twelve rounds with
skin gloves, Marquis of Queensberry
rules, to a finish for purse Of $500.
The fighting was stubborn and
hard for the entire fight, with
no decided advantage for either.
Downer fOuled Black Frank on the
twelfth round by tripping him and
then deliberately falling on him
while the referee was trying to part
them. DOwner was daZed by two face
blows in the third round, but braced up
in the fourth, and from that on stood
considerable punishment. DOwner
had first blood in the third
round by nose blow and
Frank in the sixth by giving Downer an
ugly cut over the eye. After the sew
enth round both contestants appeared
refreshed and fought viciously to
the end of the twelfth round,
when Downer apparently fOuled Frank
purposely. 1t is understood the fight
was for the middleweight championship
and is considered to be Downer's only
real fight.

THE "ANGEL'S" DANGER.
Miss Marie GreenwoOd's Narrow
Escape From Death.

Special to the Globe.
NIAGARA FALLS, n. Y, Dec. IL
Miss Marie Greenwood, the ''angef' of
the Greenwood Opera company, came
very near going over the cataract off
Luna island this morning. The com
pany has been stopping here for fort
night, waiting for its date at Erie on
Monday, having been laid out by the
stupidity of its agent, Frank E. Davis.
This morning Miss Katharine McNeill,
Miss Greenwood, Miss Florence Sinclair,
Signors Tagliapielra, ProsdOcimi and
Luchino, started for final stroll through
Goat island, Three Sisters and Luna is
land. As they reached the point
where Vedder jumped in sorle
years ago, after his fight With
PiersOn, they stood admiring the
awful spectacle. Miss Greenwood tried
to follow Tagliapietra's example of put
ting his hand in the water. As she did
SO she turned to call Miss AlcNeill's at
tention. Her foot slipped and in she
went. One bound and Tagliapietra
grasped her hand and Snatched her from
the brink with such force that she nearly
knocked him in. After the screaming
had subsidized hasty retreat was made
to the hotel, to which Miss Greenwood
insisted upon walking. She was given
stimulants and properly cared for. This
afternoon, when seen by your CORE
spondent, she said she felt all right save
for her wrenched arm and
few bruises. She declined to-
talk much about her narrow escape,
saying she did not dare think of it. Her
father is a wealthy Memphis cotton
broker. who has promised to stake the
girl to the extent of 81 600 week if she
needs it. A telegram was sent him at
once, and he will embrace his daughter
at Erie. Tagliapietra has sbeen hero
all day. He says that if Marie had been
heavy woman she would have gone
over and would probably have taken
him along. She was in the water up to
her waist before he seized her.

gomery, formerly an actor in Mrs. d.
P. Bowers company, was arrested this
morning. on suspicion of having mur-
dered his wife, in their apartments at

of the young woman-she was twenty
five years Old-was found this morning
in the yard at the rear of the dwelling
only half dressed. There was wound
from 32-caliber pistol in the left
breast, and, as there was little blood to
be seen, it was evident that death had
been almost instantaneous. Montgom-
cry is thirty-fve years old. At the sta
ton house the prisoner said that the
dead woman had not been married to
him, but had lived with him for year.
They quarreled last night about ring
that Mrs. Montgomery had pawned in

Christmas present for him, and he left
the house in anger. After drinking
good deal, he returned and went to bed

BUTTE, Mont, Dec. 1.-THE indict-
ments found by the late United States
grand jury at Deer Lodge against Vice
President Oakes, of the Northern Pa
cific. j. Nj. Buckley, E. l.. Bonner, ALB.
Hammond and L. j. Hathaway for un-
lawfully taking timber from the public
lands of the United States and shipping
it out of the territory. were demurred
by the defendants and the statute of
limitations was also pleaded in bar,
which virtually ends these prosecutions.
The decision is great relief to the min
ing industries of the territory, now
largely dependent OH the defendants for
supplies of timber for mining and mill
ing purposes. The civil suits brought
by the government against the same
parties have been virtually disposed of
in a similar way.
